Summary
“It was a career-ending injury!” Wylan snaps. “What else is there to say? Are you trying to make fun of me?”
Jesper recoils. “No! Saints, no, Wylan. That’s awful, I would never!”
“You made fun of me for just about everything else.”
“Well, that’s because I didn’t like you very much. I still don’t,” Jesper says bluntly. Wylan’s glare intensifies and Jesper hastens to add on, “But I don’t hate you!”

Seven years ago, Jesper Fahey was the up-and-coming rising star of the tennis world. The only person really in his way seemed to be the rich and haughty (and maybe, handsome) darling of Kerch tennis, Wylan Van Eck. But that was seven years ago, and after their match in Ravka—everything changed. Now, for the first time, they meet each other again.

Summary
Once, Kaz had said that Wylan thought like a lockpick. Wrong. Wylan thought like a clock, ticking, ticking, counting down the seconds he had left to live.
Breathe, he told himself, told Jesper, as the world spun and the canal waters swallowed him under: six minutes. He could survive without oxygen for six minutes.
----------------------
Or, a Wylan character study: the one in which Wylan meets a lost prince, Jesper writes a song, and Kaz loses a chess match.

Summary
Maybe it was stupid of Wylan. An impulsive decision. But he didn’t care. Something snapped in his mind that instant. He grabbed a flash bomb out from his bag and ran past Kaz, faintly hearing the man call out for him. Or was that Jesper’s voice? Wylan didn’t have time to think as the squaller got closer and closer to Inej and he was running out of time. “Get down!” He yelled out, praying to Ghezen that Inej would react fast enough. Wylan threw the bomb in their direction and shut his eyes in hopes the effect wouldn’t be as blinding. It went off with a loud boom immediately knocking everyone off their feet.
Or, What if Wylan gets captured instead of Inej?

Summary
Turning around, Wylan came nose to nose with a boy. A boy he had decidedly never seen before. Wylan would remember if somebody so pretty haunted these halls. Dark brown and unreasonably tall, the man was dressed in the roughspun of a groundsman. But his grey eyes glinted too much mischief and too little recognition. His lips – Ghezen he had the prettiest lips – were slightly parted at the shock of Wylan’s presence.
They breathed in tandem for a moment or two, like some sort of clockwork creation. Then the boy’s expression melted into a slow, sly grin.
“Funny finding you here."
Or the one where Jesper breaks into the Van Eck mansion and commits mild identity theft.
